y'all need to relearn the word erratic and stop using schizophrenic/bipolar/psychotic as a replacement
y'all need to relearn the word particular and stop using ocd as a replacement
People need to relearn the word “egocentric” and stop using narcissist/narc as a replacement.
People need to relearn the word “impulse” and stop using “intrusive thought” as a replacement
people need to relearn the word wiener and stop using weiner
this girl was showing all the signs of being a secret mermaid so i pushed her into the pool and she turned into a forty foot long mosasaurus which is tbh way cooler
not really sure how to get her out though
for those of you asking why i pushed her into the pool in the first place: i work for a duplicitous small town aquarium and i’m trying to kidnap mermaids to jump through hoops and shit to entertain tourists and make money. fucking obviously. now that i know she’s actually a mosasaurus though i Have fallen in pure-hearted love with her

Guys I was GIDDY with excitement when I realized the stick is how they figure out the standing-up perspective!!! I always figured people doing this stuff just had magical perspective powers but that makes SO MUCH SENSE what a cool tool!!! Amazing job!

Hey man, I saw your living weapon staring at its reflection. You might wanna get that looked at
Yeah, your emotionless tool of destruction is beginning to develop a sense of self. Probably nothing to worry ‘bout though
sweet will it fuck me?

reverse gaslighting where i pretend to know exactly what you are talking about
academic conferences
Work meetings
Interviews
Auditory processing disorder
conversations with my cats who are yelling
Me letting that little kid with their hyper fixation tell me every single fact they know about it
Goncharov (1973)
speechless. the pose. the expression. this should be a painting.
i’m no good at painting sorry. i have excessive line work instead
these are like… the parenthesis that remain around the empty sentence of the dinosaurs
the misunderstood but still cold-blooded devil, and the beautiful but alien and uncanny angel, timeless players in a deadly game as old as life itself
were I to create an original piece of media I would create bait so queer in order to create a fanfic environment I like. I find you guys do your best work under duress.
I’d say “jeez can two people not be friends anymore?” and then I’d give one of them amnesia in which they only recognize the other above anyone else

“Coca-Cola made an AI ad!”
“McDonald’s releases AI Christmas commercial!!”
Don’t care didn’t ask plus here’s a beautifully animated ad for a French supermarket that was made by actual artists
Kind of fucked thinking about the fact that there is one single American legally authorized to research the critically endangered pygmy raccoon in Mexico and it is, in fact, the same person who did Dashcon.
This person is also this person
And is currently the only person from the United States legally permitted to research the critically endangered pygmy raccoons (Procyon pygmaeus) in Cozumel, Mexico.
For reference, this is me, BTW! I was 15 when I started Dashcon and 17 when it actually happens, and now study tourism’s impact on the critically endangered pygmy raccoon. I’ve been researching them before now, but due to Mexico’s laws, I’ve only been allowed to do data collection from abroad (so think surveys to tourists and video analysis on social media.) But now I’m authorized for in situ research!! Yippee! I even got a grant through my university as well to fund the whole project 🥺
This is the reason this hellsite is truly a homesite. We grow here. You can go back and see how it happened. I was a Bachelor’s student when I started my tumblr. Now I’m an Associate Professor and Curator, with my own lab and Denmark’s national collection of 70,000ish reptile and amphibian specimens in my care.
I love it here
Im fucking addicted to blanket
tumblr users will be the first population of social media users to be able to lay eggs
it is already possible.
in terms of symbolism, since Hades is a representative of death, and Persephone is a representation of spring, it makes perfect sense to try to recontextualize their relationship as consensual and collaborative
“recontexulizing Greek myth in order to have them conform to the current culture’s values and norms” is one of the most common things we do to them! 18th century romantics did it, medieval Christians did it, the Romans did it, even Greeks did it again and again to their own myths
the idea that the specific depictions of myths we happen to have archeological records of are the “true” myths and everything else is a bastardization flies in the face of how humans actually engage with myth, the Greek gods (and other pantheons too) are a stable of highly symbolic and evocative characters
Honestly when people kick up a stink about this, I read “You guys are playing with these dolls wrong, and this is important because the dolls are Very Old”
